Installing Windows 7 New Distribution DVD onto partition
Hey Guys and/or Girls,
Upgrading my Windows XP/ Ubuntu (GRUB2 Dual Boot) system to Windows 7.
Instead of buying a copy of Windows 7, I would like to use the Win7 install DVDs that came with the computer when it was purchased.
I have booted from the first of 3 discs for HP's Win7 install DVD's, however it said it had to format the entire disc and create only one primary partition.
Obviously, this isnt really what I wanted :).
Is it possible to install Windows 7 onto the older Windows XP partition without affecting the Ubuntu partition?
Thanks for any help!
Liam
